Consulting and Project Support

Conduct Activity Based Costing Analysis (“Cost Revenue Analysis”) to determine the true cost structure of products and services. Results are used to make decisions that better align financial resources with mission-driven priorities.

What changes should we make to particular products and services?

Analyze products like Donor-Advised Funds, providing data on current economics, growth patterns, and the implications of possible policy changes.

What is our growth potential?

Assess the development potential of individual community foundations, including analysis of the local market and comparison to similar markets nationwide.

What new community and donor needs should we be supporting?

Conduct market research with key community foundation constituents to identify changing dynamics in the marketplace, determine what constituents value most, and test possible changes in policy or strategy.

“Our biggest learning from the Cost Revenue Analysis [Activity-Based Costing analysis] is that we’ve got as one of our major goals to create a sustainable business model… Having this data to think this through is really helpful.”
